Figure 7. Shedding of the syndecan-1 ectodomain is lessened by FFP.
Systemic levels of syndecan-1 ectodomain were quantified by ELISA. Shedding was increased by trauma and hemorrhagic shock (HS), lessened by 3X lactated Ringers (LR) resuscitation, but further decreased by 1X fresh frozen plasma (FFP). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM, n=8 per group, p<0.05 considered statistically significant.
